The answer to the “What is it? Wednesday” question from April 9th is the oar mounted to the side of our German Type 166 Schwimmwagen! The Schwimmwagen is an amphibious car designed for crossing bodies of water, like ponds and rivers! The downside to this is if you break down, you can't just pull over... Thus the oar! Have you ever broken down on the water?Stay tuned for the next “What is it? Wednesday” question tomorrow, April 16th at 10:00 am EST!#americanheritagemuseum #whatisitwednesday ... See MoreSee Less

American Heritage Museum Library Membership / Pass Program

American Heritage Museum Library Pass Membership ProgramThe American Heritage Museum Library Membership / Pass Program provides local libraries to offer patrons and local citizens discounted admission to the American Heritage Museum through permanent passes available for lending. Many museums in the region offer such programs to library patrons and their families and the American Heritage Museum is proud to offer the program as well to allow communities to learn more about the American efforts to fight for and defend freedom, the role of the citizen soldier in these efforts, and the role of technology in supporting these efforts.

The American Heritage Museum Library Membership / Pass Program is available for $200 annually and includes the following:

– Four (4) Reusable Half-Price General Admission Passes for up to Six (6) visitors under a single pass. Passes are not valid for special events or the annual WWII re-enactment weekend in October.

– One (1) Library Staff Membership allowing library staff, trustees, or volunteers free admission for educational and program development research.

– Member mailings of upcoming events, exhibits, and educational programs.

The passes also offer discounts on Membership purchases for the pass holder if they decide to become an Individual or Family Member when they visit. See passes for details.
